If not his heart then something else is surely bordering him and he isn't telling her the truth. God knows what the matter with him could be.
"Dad, tell me the truth now, and don't make me get Doctor Vince for you," Esmeralda threatens him.
"Uh-oh, why doctor Vince now?"

"Oh! I see now, so you want to get me into trouble with doctor Vince… so he can call Edwin and inform him that am not following his instructions and not looking after my health," Robert spoke after getting a hint on what his daughter is trying to do.
"That's right sir!" Esmeralda lets out.
Her father was able to get hold of her plan in such a little time, the old man is more clever than ever still. She is confident doctor Vince will get the job done for her. And when has he ever disappointed her? Whenever she wants to get in touch with Uncle Edwin, not directly, she does it through Doctor Vince.
